This piece embodies the iconic style made famous by the great master Mestre Vitalino and carried on by subsequent generations of celebrated artisans, including the Rodrigues family. The work is unsigned (base is missing), but the expressive face, the specific style of painting, and the subject matter align closely with the work of masters like Antônio Rodrigues and other artists from the arts center of Alto do Moura.
